As soon as I figure out how to attach it, the I'll try to help you out.

The closest thing to combat lifesaver in the civilian world is the First Responder course. This is designed for law enforcement and firefighters to perform medical procedures before EMS arives at a scene. It actually carries a certification card depending on the state. The National Registry of EMT m...

For those interested, here are the current guidelines for Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC). These guidelines were published by the Comittee on TCCC (CoTCCC), a subordinate committee to the Defense Health Board. Ranger medical personnel have been involved with TCCC since its beginning in 1996. Si...

1. Yes, keep a copy of all your surgical and medical records. They could become very important if you have any kind of complications or problems later. 2. Yes, try to disclose the information once again at MEPS. No, don't expect them to acknowledge it much either. At best, they "may" recor...

The RMED Pelt Stick lives on. In fact, it is getting fed this week.

My view on the old haircut, the old shiny boots, the old starches is this.... Simple Standards for Simple People to enforce in a Simple Way. For years, we measured a Ranger by the shinyness of the sides of his head and his boots. We did not measure well how intelligent he was at tactical problem so...

No, I'm not quite that "myopic". I've just come to a point where my first thought is whether the shiny head and spiffy uniform is all he is. Face it, how many times have you encountered guys who love to wear their 201 file, but that's all they are? If you peel away the shallow shell of eas...

WHAT? No more 91B2V's? That sucks! Or maybe not, we didn't get a whole lot of real training before we got to the Bn. Mostly slings, dressings and splints. We got all the EMT training once we got to bn. :shock: MOS 91B became MOS 91W and then became MOS 68W. The AIT went from 10 weeks to 16 weeks to...

Technically, yes, you may move your family with you to Ft Bragg for the SOCM course. However, it is discouraged as it is already a difficult course and families tend to make it more difficult. That being said, guys have done it before. The main thing is DO NOT sign your family into any kind of post ...

Just because I have seen queries on here in the past, I will post the official response. Ranger Medics are MOS 68W personnel with the ASI “W1” and SQI of “P” or “V”, so a medic in the Regiment holds either MOS 68W1PW1 or 68W1VW1 (the 4th digit number designated by rank/skill level). (68W is the Army...

So, where did the original post go to???? The entire post on the Ranger Medic recruiting process??? The entire purpose of putting on here has been defeated.

I will continue to blame that on the physician whose desk it was placed on for review...

I have not been able to hire any M6 personnel in the past as you are not the first to have the Ranger desire. Do you have a set of orders already that specifically say you are coming to RIP? Recommend you send a message to 75recruit@soc.mil That will put you in contact with me officially and we can ...
